Starter 1) Plot and join these coordinates A(4,1) B(3,4) C(0,3) D(1,0)   The shape is a… 2) What is the coordinate of the 4th vertex of the parallelogram: E(-1,1) F(2,-3) G(0,-4) H(?,?) 3) Plot to find the midpoint of the line joining J(-4,-2) & K(0,3)

The Distance Between Two Points Coordinate geometry describes shapes using the coordinates of points. It’s the study of geometric problems using algebraic methods. A sketch will often help you understand the problem, but always show your working

The Distance Between Two Points The distance between A (3,2) and B (7,2) is the distance between the x coordinates. Length AB = 7 – 3 = 4 This is the change in x.

The Distance Between Two Points The distance between C (4,2) and D (4,5) is the distance between the y coordinates. Distance from C to D = 5 – 2 = 3 This is the change in y.

To find the distance between points on other straight lines we use the theorem of Pythagoras Find the distance between A (2,1) and B (6,4) Step 1: Draw a diagram Mark A and B and form a right angled triangle ABT Step 2: Find the lengths of AT and BT Length AT = change in x = 6 – 2 = 4 Length BT = change in y = 4 – 1 = 3 Step 3: Apply the theorem of Pythagoras = AT2 + BT2 = 42 + 32 = 25 so AB = 5 So the distance between A and B is 5 units. B (6,4) A (2,1) T

What is the length of the line segment joining P (-3,4) and Q (2,-5)? Step 1: Draw a diagram Step 2: Find the lengths of the sides Length QT = 2 – -3 = 5 Length PT = 4 – -5 = 9 Step 3: Apply the theorem of Pythagoras PQ2 = QT2 + PT2 = 25 + 81 = 106 so PQ = 10.29563 The length of PQ is 10.3 units (1dp). P T Q

Find the distance between the following pairs of points A (0,5) and B (0,2) C (-1,1) and D (-3,6) E (-2,6) and F (8,6) G (1,6) and H (5,3) I (-6,-4) and J (1,3) M (-4,5) and N (3,2) 3 √29 10 5 7√2 or 9.9 √58 or 7.62

The Formula for the distance between two points Two general points A (x1, y1) and B (x2, y2) Step 1: The diagram Step 2: The lengths of the sides length AT = change in x = x2 – x1 length BT = change in y = y2 – y1 Step 3: by Pythagoras AB2 = AT2 + BT2 = (x2 – x1)2 + (y2 – y1)2 So AB = √ (x2 – x1)2 + (y2 – y1)2 B (x2, y2) T A (x1, y1)

Find the distance between A (3,-2) and B (-4,-1) Let A (3,-2) be (x1,y1) then x1=3 & y1=-2 If B (-4,-1) is (x2,y2) then x2=-4 & y2=-1 Substitute into the formula AB = √ (x2 – x1)2 + (y2 – y1)2 = √ (-4 – 3)2 + (-1 – -2)2 = √ (-7)2 + 12 = √ 50 = 7.0710678 = 7.07 (3 sf)

Use the formula to find the distance between (1,2) and (5,7) By finding the lengths of each side of the triangle joining the points A (-3,4), B (3,5) and C (2,-1), decide whether triangle ABC is scalene, isosceles or equilateral. Use the theorem of Pythagoras to show that the triangle joining the points P (2,7), Q (4,-1) and R (-2,6) is a right angled triangle. MX234 page 5

1. = √ (5 – 1)2 + (7 – 2)2 = √ 16 + 25 = √ 41 = 6.403 = √ (-6 – -2)2 + (-8 – -3)2

2. A (-3,4) B (3,5) Length AB = √ (3 – -3)2 + (5 – 4)2 = √ 37 = 6.083 Length BC = √ (3 – 2)2 + (5 – -1)2 Length AC = √ (-3 – 2)2 + (4 – -1)2 = √50 = 7.071 Since length AB = length BC, ABC is isosceles C (2,-1)

Length PQ = √ (4 – 2)2 + (-1 – 7)2 = √ 68 Length RP = √ (2 – -2)2 + (7 – 6)2 = √ 17 Length RQ = √ (4 – -2)2 + (-1 – 6)2 = √85 If RP2 + PQ2 = RQ2, then PRQ is right angled. RP2 + PQ2 = (√17)2 + (√68)2 = 17 + 68 = 85 = RQ2 So PQR is a right angled triangle P (2,7) R (-2,6) Q (4,-1)

Gradients All the lines in the graph have different slopes The gradient of the line is defined as: Gradient = change in y change in x = y2 – y1 x2 – x1 MX234 page 6

Find the gradient of the line joining P(1,2) and Q(6,4) Let P (1,2) be the point (x1,y1) then x1 = 1 and y1 = 2. If Q (6,4) is (x2,y2) then x2 = 6 and y2 = 4. So gradient of PQ = y2 – y1 x2 – x1 = 4 – 2 6 – 1 = 2 5 Q P

Find the gradient of the line joining S(-2,3) and T(4,-5) Let S(-2,3) be the point (x1,y2) then x1 = -2 and y1 = 3. If T(4,-5) is (x2,y2) then x2 = 4 and y2 = -5. So gradient of ST = y2 – y1 x2 – x1 = -5 – 3 4 – -2 = -8 6 S T The gradient of ST is -4/3.

Remember Gradient = y2 – y1 x2 – x1 The gradient of any horizontal line is zero. gradient = 2 – 2 5 – 1 = 0 4 The gradient of any vertical line is undefined. gradient = 4 – 1 2 – 2 = 3

Find the gradients of the line segments joining the following pairs of points A(2,3) B(6,7) C(0,4) D(3,-2) E(-5,6) F(2,-1) G(3,0) H(-4,0) I(-3,4) J(-6,8) K(5,-1) L(5,2) 1 -2 -1 -4/3 The gradient is undefined

Gradients and Angles If you know the gradient of a straight line, you can find the angle the line makes with the positive direction of the x axis. MX234 page 10

Find tan θ, and then θ in the triangle shown. C (7,4) θ A (2,1) B (7,1) Tan θ = BC AB = 3 5 = 0.6 θ = 30.963756530 So θ = 310 (2 sf)

Remember The gradient of a line is the tangent of the angle the line makes with the positive direction of the x axis.

What is the gradient of the line which meets the x axis at 500? Gradient = tan θ = tan 500 = 1.1917536 So the gradient of the line is 1.19 (2dp) 500

At what angle does the line with gradient 4 meet the x axis? Gradient = tan θ 4 = tan θ θ = 75.963757 So the line meets the x axis at 760 (2 sf)

Find the gradient of the line which meets the x axis at 350 The gradient of PQ is 0.5. At what angle does PQ meet the x axis? Find the angle which the line joining A (0,-8) and B (3,-7) makes with the positive direction of the x axis. Gradient = tan 350 = 0.7002 (4sf) Tan θ = 0.5 θ = 26.60 (1dp) The line PQ meets the x axis at 26.60 x Q P x

Find the angle which the line joining A (0,8) and B (3,-7) makes with the positive direction of the x axis. Gradient AB = -7 - -8 3 – 0 = 1 3 If angle between AB and x axis is θ then tan θ = 0.3333 θ = 18.40

Finding the Mid-point of a Line Segment The coordinates of the midpoint M of the line segment joining the points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are found using the formula: M = ( x1 + x2 , y1 + y2 ) 2 2 x (x1,y1) midpoint x (x2,y2)

c) Length PQ = √(3 - -1)2 + (1 – 3)2 = √ 20 = 4.47 (2dp) P is (-1,3) b) Q is (3,1) c) Length PQ = √(3 - -1)2 + (1 – 3)2 = √ 20 = 4.47 (2dp) d) Length AC = √(4 - -4)2 + (-3 – 1)2 = √ 80 = 8.94 (2dp) B(2,5) P A(-4,1) Q C(4,-3)

Collinear Points If points lie on the same straight line we say they are collinear. It’s possible to decide whether points are collinear or not by finding the gradients of the line segments connecting the points x x A, B and C are collinear A B x C Q x P x R x P, Q and R are not collinear

Test for collinear points If A, B and C are collinear, then the gradient AB = gradient BC or gradient AB = gradient AC x C x x B A

Do the points A (-4, -17), B (-1 ,-7) and C (6, 13) lie on the same straight line? Gradient AB = yb – ya Gradient BC = yc - yb xb – xa ` xc – xb = -7 - -17 = 13 - -7 -1 - -4 6 - -1 = 10 = 20 3 7 Gradient AB ≠ gradient BC, A, B and C do not lie on the same straight line. y 10 -10 x -5 5

If A (-3, 11), B (1,3) and C (6, m) are collinear, find m. Gradient AB = yb – ya so -2 = yc - yb xb – xa ` xc – xb = 3 - 11 -2 = m - 3 1 - -3 5 = -8 -10 = m - 3 4 m = -7 = -2 Since A, B and C are C is the point (6, -7) collinear, gradient BC = -2 A B C

1. Show the points P (2, -7), Q (-1, -5) and R (-4, -3) are collinear. Gradient PQ = -7 - -5 Gradient QR = -5 - -3 2 - -1 -1 - -4 = -2 = -2 3 3 Since gradient PQ equals gradient QR, P, Q and R are collinear. 2. If K (3, -7), L (-1, a) and M (1, -1) are collinear, find a. Gradient KM = -7 - -1 Gradient LM = a - -1 3 - 1 -1 - 1 = -3 = a + 1 -2 If K, L and M are collinear, a + 1 = -3 a = 5 MX234 page 16
